Hang in there, Dross.

Man, my heart goes out to you!

How can we encourage you? I mean, I'm tempted to give you all sorts of advice (i.e. A "here are all the things you should do" list), but for now, I want to commend you for coming onto this forum. Bookmark this place and keep coming back!

There is hope. I'm telling you, you definitely can get free of all "the junk" as I call it. ;)

-Steve

ditto what Steve said.  We're here to love and help you, not to condem you or hurt you.  Congrats on taking the first step.
